Two days after Michael Bennett and his brother Martellus were honored at the 2017 BWT Awards for their community work off the football field, the Seahawk defensive end announced yet another unique initiative.
Tuesday, Bennett and his wife Pele announced they have partnered with iamtheCode to help get 100 girls into S.T.E.A.M. (science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics) programs.
Said Bennett in a statement: “I am truly excited to help these girls in Africa to learn how to code and gain technical skills through iamtheCODE. My wife Pele and I are very proud to support the building of solid tech training pipelines in communities in Africa.
